My students are bright, intelligent middle schoolers with a spark for knowledge and a wanting to learn. They are trying to figure out who they are as a person and a student while battling the ideas that they will not amount to anything because of who they are and where they come from. My students are from the poorest and most rundown neighborhood in the community; but you would never know it if you saw them. My students have a thirst for creativity that is constantly being challenged in their everyday lives. They want to learn and create, but are also trying to figure out the point of all of it. Everyday is a struggle to teach my students how to not only draw, paint, and build but also how to be positive members of society and how to work with their peers. Last year, I had a student tell me that is my class she learned to "be in a room with people whom she would normally fight, but instead be able to work with them." This shows me how important it is to build a classroom community.
